lol you obviously dont get the worst cramps ever if they dont stop you from working out.

yea ovulation is worse than my period in terms of weight and bloating.

I workout harder the next day and try not to eat carbs, cheese or dessert.

same. Its better for me when I eat more salt.

shots !

sandwich.

workout !! Honestly when was the last time you did not feel better after a great workout?

I have very similar stats and this has worked for me too!

I get light headed when I dont eat enough sodium. try adding some more salt! Lots of people on this site try to minimize sodium but that can harm you if you have low blood pressure.

Im usually over in fiber and protein. I think in general thats a good thing, just dont take it too far.

eat more! you look like you are making healthy choices so just increase the volume!

I have lost weight without cutting it out completely so there is a way. its just like cupcakes or cookies. Fit it into your calories ! I try to only drink on nights when I know ill be dancing, that way at least I burn some off.

I dont drink as often which has made my tolerance very low. Now after 1 or 2 drinks im good for a few hours :) Also, switch your drink choices. Tequila on ice with lime twist is my fave, and it is recommended by Jillian Michaels.

That has never happened to me. How much did you eat?

IMO its ok to have leftover calories if you earned them from exercise. Otherwise you should try to fill them up.

mine fluctuates because I calorie cycle. I am losing about 1 lb a week though, and i should be losing more based on my deficit according to MFP.

There is still massive resistance to the concept that people can weight too much. Fat acceptance has hit lots of progressive politically correct communities and college campuses. Its "loving your body" to the extreme. People feel that when doctors tell them they are overweight they are really compelling them to adhere to…

love her. she is fat.

everyone expresses their ED differently! You cant make generalizations like "people with real ED are private about it." Mental illness takes on many different forms. If someone is doing it for attention and still ends up hospitalized that doesnt mean they are less sick than someone who was private about it and ended up in…

why do you think of it as punishment ? I love logging healthy things, It makes me feel good about my day. And yes, you should log everything. EVERYTHING. Just because something is healthy doesnt mean its calorie free. You should be eating it and logging it .

How tall are you?

in general clear drinks are lower cal. (according to JM lol). I do shots instead of mixed drinks for the most part, gets right to the point without the extra cals. Im a college student and this week is commencement week so I have been struggling to fit alcohol into my calories. I have managed to stay under but im not all…

everyone says you wont bulk up on a deficit but I did lol so just figure out what works for you.

does smoking just include cigarets ? If its only nicotine than I fit all 7 lol

It doesnt seem that much higher but % wise it does make a difference.

I pretty much feel like I wrote this post. I just turned 21, I am a student, Im 138 lbs, 5'1". Starting weight 172. 1000 is low for me, but I workout all the time. THe past few days have been a **** show for me eating wise, but I usually eat around 1200. People give you alot of **** for eating low cal. Sometimes its…

I suggest you search the forums because this question has about 1 new post a day. People on this site are divided on eating back exercise calories. Camp 1: This site was set up to keep you at a deficit if you dont exercise. When you work out you have to fuel your body by eating back those calories, but MFP has set it up so…

Also there are political and environmental reasons to eat clean.

It would be very unusual if your weight loss slowed because you started eating healthier lol. after 25 lbs its normal to slow down and plateau for a while. Thats the pattern of weight loss. Keep eating healthy! There are reasons beyond the number on the scale. And to those people who say they cant afford to eat…

it depends. If you feel ok you are probably fine. If I dont eat enough sodium I get dizzy and see little stars around. Especially if i have been working out/sweating.
